|---|---|---|---|---|

Solid tempo set by Chimu Dondon and Hiro Suzuran. SAKURA TOP RUN (8) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1400m at this track after being in the firing line all the way. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. NEKONI KOTATSU (12) is close to breaking through, last start finishing just half a length away in second over 1400m at this track after being prominent from the outset. Will need a good ride from Ryo Kobayashi off the awkward draw. Finds a suitable race and can build on solid recent efforts. UTENA (11) was safely held when sixth last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 11 lengths. That followed a good first-up win at this track. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. ASUNO HEROINE (4) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 19 lengths. Fitter so can feature in the finish.
